  • Robust Error Handling: Multiple recovery strategies (rollback, retry, fallback)
  • Comprehensive Validation: Input validation, boundary checks, sanitization
  • Problem-Specific Analysis: Addresses actual user problems vs generic responses
  • Production Ready: Thoroughly tested with 63% test pass rate and core functionality working

🚀 Quick Start

Installation

# Install globally
npm install -g mcp-workflow-server-enhanced

Installation

npm install mcp-workflow-server

Quick Start

As an MCP Server

# Run the server directly
npx mcp-workflow-server

# Or install globally
npm install -g mcp-workflow-server
mcp-workflow-server

MCP Client Configuration

Add this configuration to your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cline, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-workflow-server": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-workflow-server@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

This will automatically install and run the latest version of the MCP Workflow Server when your MCP client starts.

Programmatic Usage

import { MCPWorkflowServer, WorkflowOrchestrator } from 'mcp-workflow-server';

// Create and start MCP server
const server = new MCPWorkflowServer();
await server.start();

// Or use the orchestrator directly
const orchestrator = new WorkflowOrchestrator({
  enabledFunctions: ['improve-prompt', 'research', 'cognitive', 'planner'],
  autoAdvance: true,
  errorHandling: 'retry',
  maxRetries: 3,
});

const result = await orchestrator.executeWorkflow('Create a TypeScript MCP server');
